Spritz Cookies (German Butter Cookies)
December 14, 2012
Buttery melt in the mouth, Spritzen Christmas butter cookies.
I love this buttery melt-in-the-mouth, Spritzen Christmas Wreath while doing my Happy Dance.
Thank You.
Sometime in June this year, I received an email, from a reader in Holland. Few emails going to and fro, exchanging views on one of my posts ~ Semperit, the melt-in-the-mouth custard cookies...
Reading her reply made me smile... she baked some and loved the cookies...
I was just like a little school girl who had just been told by her teacher that she had passed her exams with flying colors...blushed, my head was buzzing with excitement, my heart was beating like a drum, and couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear...
In return...Rachel mentioned in one of her emails, about the Dutch famous cookies ~ Spritzen by Rudolf Van Veen thus she sent me the link
I was excited... another recipe to try
I hopped onto the link... its in Dutch.
I asked Mr Google to translate but he was no help at all....so I wrote to Rachel, stating my predicament and helplessness situation... Rachel to my rescue...
I thank you Rachel, from the bottom of my heart.
Eventhough you were busy with your family and work, you gave some of your precious time to translate and emailed me the recipe in English.
With a bit of research on my part, I found out that Spritzen or Spritz cookies Swedish Butter cookies, or Pressed Butter Cookies are popular Christmas cookies... hence here is my take on Spritzen to add to your Christmas celebration...or tree
Happy Baking

Feels good to know that someone read my post and appreciated my artwork... and brought me to greater heights, reeling from 'Euphoria' and almost feeling giddy, to know at least one person had tried making or baking one recipe taken 'Lisa's Lemony Kitchen and they enjoyed their "make" as much as I enjoyed mine.Thank You.
